The Easy Way To Instantly Find Out Who Owns Any Phone Number

By Sam Thompson


Today we're going to tell you about a method to discover who any phone number belongs to. This tool can help you find out a lot of information about someone from their phone number alone. This information includes address, name and perhaps other details as well.

As you probably already know, unlisted and cell phone numbers are not in any phonebook. This means they aren't in any "public domain" so information on these types of phones is not easy to get a hold of.

There are firms who are in the business of compiling lists of every phone number. Out of these lists, directories are built which hold every phone number that they can find. These companies pay for access to this information, which can then be searched to find out information on the owners of certain numbers.

These are referred to as "reverse phone directories" and they allow you to get full details on any number. It's all done online - you just type in the phone number, hit search, and the person's details will be displayed on your computer screen.

Immediately following this article is a link which will allow you to do a sample search for free; try it for yourself.

These companies will charge a fee for using this type of service but it isn't expensive. You can find some that will only charge a flat one-time fee that then lets you use unlimited searches - this is your best option so that you don't have to pay again each time you want to run a search on a number.

Several different reasons lead people to use these sort of services. Checking up on a spouse who is exhibiting suspicious behavior to see who has been calling them, or putting a stop to frequent prank calls are two common uses for these services. Any time you want to find out about someone, but have only a number to work from, these directories come in handy.

Before you take the plunge and hand over money to one of these sites though, there is one simple and free thing you can do. Perform a Google search on the number in question: be sure to use quotation marks around the number, and search it.

A paid search isn't terribly expensive, but Google is worth a try nonetheless. You may be surprised!

If this phone number is online on some webpage, then Google will bring it up for you. Phone numbers will make their way on the internet for a few different reasons (classified ads, profile pages etc) so there's a chance the number you are "investigating" might just be on the web.

If your number can't be found this way, then on to the directories. Don't pass up a web search though, you never know where phone numbers will turn up.

Working from only a number, you can learn a lot about someone; thanks to reverse phone directories, this is easier than ever.
